I am going to purchase the V6 Mac Catback next month. It looks like an easy installation that I can do myself and fairly economical and will do the job. Tomorrow I will be installing my first MOD, a CAI from American Muscle.

Default CAI Update

I installed my AM CAI with little difficulty. I noticed some HP gains and sound improvement. I am pleased with my CAI. My next Mod will be the Mac Performance Cat Backs in 3 weeks.

MAC makes a good cat back. at least for the v8's they do. i had a Summit racing brand cat back on my v6. but the MAC cat back that i have on my GT sounds amazing, i get compliments on it all the time. dont waste your time with headers and mid pipes on a v6, i did it and so did so many others on this forum. unless you are making 50+ HP over stock you dont need a mid pipe. by the way your car has 4 cats and 1 muffler, i noticed in your first post you said 2 mufflers. here is a nice exhaust guide from AM http://www.americanmuscle.com/unders...t-systems.html
